First Grade: Old Boys won the toss and elected to bat first. Old
Boys hit 4/251 off their 35 overs. Best bowling: Scott Hulbert 2/28 off 3 overs; Aaron Dennis
1/34 off 7 overs; Daniel Lawrence 1/43 off 7 overs. In reply City hit 8/211 off
their 35 overs. Best batting: Ryan
Hansen 30 runs; Scott De Weymarn 29 runs; Daniel Lawrence 28 runs; Peter Mead
26 runs. In the absence of Dan Whale, Ben Semmler was stand-in captain and lead
the side well. Old Boys opener, Simon
Norvill was in good form hitting his first century for the season. It didn’t help that City dropped him 3 times
alone; the first when Simon was on 4 runs.
There will be more catching practice this week lads. Our batting line-up has plenty of promise and
hopefully as the season progresses this will be reflected in the scores. First Grade has gained a few
new faces this season in the form of Scott De Weymarn, Scott Hulbert, Simon
Toyer & Aaron Dennis. City also
welcomes back to Ben Semmler and Ben Chew.
All these players will provide a huge boost to the First Grade
side.
Second Grade: City United won the toss and elected to bat. City
United were dismissed for 197 runs in the 34th over. Best batting: Andy Jarratt 45 runs; Chris Langston 23 runs;
Sean Hancock 20 runs. In reply Old Boys were dismissed for 138 runs in the 33rd
over. Best bowling: Shel Ravi 5/34 off 7 overs; Pat Dwyer 2/15 off 7 overs;
Chris Langston 2/37 off 7 overs. With the cricket season commencing during the
school holidays, some players from the lower grades were called upon to help
field a team for seconds. A good win boys, with tougher matches lying
ahead.
Third
Grade: Unfortunately Old Boys were unable to
field a team and handed City United a forfeit.

weekend, you all did yourself and your club proud.
GOOOOOOO well done Shel,
city's first five wicket haul
